The Opera team has released version 10.10 of their feature-rich browser. This is the first Opera release to come with Opera Unite, which combines the web browser with a web server, so that users can share data directly between one another, without the need for a third party.

Firstly, what do you think the web is? It's a big scary place where people either wander into the badlands unexpectedly or the badlands find them.

You might as well say the same thing about *ANYTHING* on the internet.

Facebook, Dropbox, IRC, MSN, Email, whatever you name can be bad.

That is why it is unfortunately nearly 100% necessary to have anti-malware software (or sense) of some type on any machine that connects to any other, no matter how. (Be that directly or via physically transferred data)

Seriously, is spouting crap like that the best use of those who seemingly hate Opera for not being F/OSS/Firefox/Chrome's time?
